On some devices, the hda driver needs to hook into a video driver,
in order to be able to properly access the audio hardware and/or
the power management function.

That's the case of several snd_hda_intel devices that depends on
i915 driver.

Currently, this dependency is hidden from /proc/modules and
from lsmod, making harder to identify the need to unbind the
audio driver before being able to unbind the i915 driver.

Add a reference for it at the module dependency, in order to
allow userspace to identify it, and print a message on such
cases.
